When logging in the Backup Console after installation you see the following error:

The following error can be found in the Event log or in C:\ProgramData\Acronis\LicenseServer\bootstrap.log:

Also when checking the list of running processes, acronis_license_server.exe cannot be found among them.

Cause

Issue in the product. On some systems acronis_license_service process fails to create a value in Windows Registry and cannot start as a result.

Solution

Open Windows Registry (regedit.exe) and modify security settings of HKLM\Software\Acronis so NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE account has full access to the key.

More information

This issue has been fixed in Acronis Cyber Protect 15.
